¶ … Role of Cost Benefit Analysis in Making Security Decisions
Security decisions always reflect cost-benefit analyses, because different jurisdictions and organizations have specific budgets and resources that dictate what programs and equipment are feasible choices. For example, a large and well-funded police department such as the NYPD may be able to invest the resources necessary to develop and implement the most advanced, state-of-the-art technologies and tools (Clifford 2004, 305-307). Meanwhile, much smaller and less well-funded municipalities, such as Union City, CA typically lack the resources necessary to make comparable choices (Clifford 2004, 307). Therefore, those entities must be creative, such as by developing out-of-the-box strategies that contribute to their missions and objectives in ways that are lower cost and that represent high return on resource investments (Clifford 2004, 310). Examples would include maximizing resources such as citizen's groups and approaching crime from a prevention perspective, such as through providing after-school programs to reduce the incidence of juvenile crime (Clifford 2004, 307).
The Role of Risk Analysis in Making Security Decisions
Security decisions always rely heavily on an initial process of risk analysis because every security environment represents different types of security threats (Clifford 2004, 213). Depending on the nature of the environment, the principle security threats might be physical security and perimeter access control in some environments but information security and computer security in others. Naturally, it is impossible to design and implement an optimal security plan to address the specific threats to any given entity without first identifying and understanding the particular threats inherent to any given environment (Clifford 2004, 213). Moreover, where some threat environments demand a specific emphasis on one type of security threat, others might require a more complex approach that provides complete protection from multiple types of unrelated threats within a comprehensive integrated security plan (Clifford 2004, 214).

Benefit Analysis Introduction and Analysis of the Project: Cost-Benefit Analysis of Proposed New Health Warnings on Tobacco Products (Report, 2003) The new regulation introduced in July 2004 to be implemented for all the years till 2030, have significant cost impact on the economy. Certain benefits are also associated with it, the primary ones include health improvement, increased revenues for non-tobacco industry and the decreased healthcare expense. The major costs are related
This could pose additional threats (Brimacombe, Antunes and McIntyre, 2001). There are also two arguments which reveal the overstatement of the estimations. The first refers to the fact that the tax structures are taken as constants, when in fact modifications could occur and result in the allocation of more funds to the health care sector. Then, the second argument is that the business, technology and administrative communities present the population
Forecasting A forecast should be as accurate as possible. There are several reasons for this. The first is that forecasts are often used to make business decisions such as purchasing and resource deployment. When the forecast is far from reality, the business decisions will also reflect that. If the point of forecasting is to ensure the right levels of labor, inventory and capital, then a bad forecast will leave the company
Contingency Plans to Reduce Cryptosporidium Rate Shadyville, Sunnydale's neighboring town, has reported an incident rate of 10 new cases in every 100,000 residents for cryptosporidiosis. As a result, the residents have two contingency plans that could assist in probably reducing the rate of cryptosporidium. The first contingency plan involves the removal of pathogenic microorganisms in the area's water system, which will decrease the influenza rate to four new incidents every year.
The Impact of Using Professional Bilingual Interpreters Abstract Elderly Hispanic patients experience numerous challenges when seeking for healthcare services since they are only eloquent in their native language and are classified as Limited English Proficient (LEP) patients. This paper examines patient-provider communication between these patients and healthcare providers. The evaluation is carried out to determine the role and significance of bilingual interpreters in promoting medication adherence among elderly Hispanic patients aged 50-75
This also implies inadequacies in fiscal sustainability, which influences investments in private sectors. The second channel happens through the level, composition and quality involved within the public investment, which shows the level at which the public investment replaces the private investments (Schmidt- Hebbel, Serven, & Solimano, 1996). The final channel regards the level of taxation on the corporate earnings and the rules applicable in depreciations. There have been arguments that fiscal policy
